How can your company ensure that

being away from the desk does not

become a barrier to productivity? What’s

the best way to provide connectivity for

employees who are always on the move

in your building? Shouldn’t there be a

way to leave your desk, without leaving

behind your telephone and all its capa-

bilities that you rely on every day?

The answer is the Nortel T7406E

Cordless Digital Telephone. It enables

employees on the move to stay in touch

with desktop productivity features in a

wide variety of settings, whether it’s an

office, manufacturing line, retail store,

healthcare clinic or other typical busi-

ness environment.

Best-in-class performance

The T7406E (‘E’ for enhanced)

represents the right fit between small

business mobility feature requirements

and affordability. It’s a high-quality,

stylish design with best-in-class per-

formance based on Nortel’s leadership

in wireless technology. This enhanced

digital cordless phone is attractively

priced compared to other cordless

models on the market. The result is

a great leap forward in mobility

price/performance.

Nortel designed the T7406E based on

extensive customer research. Among the

top inputs were a smaller handset, more

range away from the base and great

audio quality across a variety of office,

retail, manufacturing, healthcare and

other environments. The T7406E

delivers all of that, and more.

The richest feature set

Today people expect their in-office

mobility handset to mirror their

familiar cell phone or cordless phone

at home. The T7406E meets this

expectation, but with the additional

value — and productivity benefits —

of delivering all the PBX features of

a desktop phone. (In fact, T7406E

handsets may be “twinned” with a

desktop set.)

The T7406E provides all of the func-

tionality packed into our Norstar and

Business Communications Manager

(BCM) solutions, such as caller ID,

conferencing, managing two calls

simultaneously, voicemail, abbreviated

dialing capability and more.

The benefits? As just one example,

retail associates or any other “always

mobile” workers can use one telephone

number and receive all calls on both

their desk set and their wireless

T7406E handset. They may even

eliminate their desk set altogether

Product Brief

Nortel T7406E Cordless Digital Telephone

and use the T7406E to remain connect-

ed regardless of their location within

the building.

The result? Associates are more

available to customers, dramatically

reducing the amount of call-back

messages. There is no need to use the

overhead paging system that may

disturb customers and annoy employees.

Floor staff can have instant access to

store promotions or special pricing

information right on the spot.

Meanwhile, there are convenient cell

phone-like features, such as toggling

between vibrate/silent modes, which

helps employees remain responsive to

customer calls but avoid a disturbing

ringer tone when talking in person with

customers. The T7406E also includes a

signal strength indicator and an audible

alert that sounds when the user is close

to going out of range during a call.

Better ergonomics,

longer battery life

The stylish and compact design of the

unit itself, with backlit keypad and LCD

display, is much more ergonomic and

portable than previous generations. The

three-line (3 x 16) display puts more

information quickly in reach. T7406E

has an extensive battery life and

extremely quick recharge time, which

pays off in applications where employees

work in shifts and there are no “off

hours” for re-charging. The T7406E is

ready when and where it’s needed.

The payoff of increased mobility is easy

to realize in, for example, the hospitality

industry, where managers need to over-

see multiple areas on the property. By

roaming with the cordless digital hand-

set, they can avoid expensive cellular

or pager charges. Staff can use T7406E

to communicate the status of a room

(vacant, cleaned, under repair) or

even the expected wait time at the

hotel restaurant — or request urgent

property maintenance.

Three times the

effective range

The T7406E’s range is truly best-in-

class, stretching to 1,000 feet (line of

sight). That is important in any applica-

tion, but consider the advantage in light

manufacturing, where downtime can

mean major losses. In a situation where

a problem arises on the line, a supervi-

sor can use the T7406E to instantly

conference in other parties, such as

machinists, product designers or even

inventory clerks, and quickly resolve

the problem. The T7406E can also help

ensure workplace safety by enabling

the instant broadcast of a message to

a particular location within the manu-

facturing facility, or factory-wide.

Greater mobility = Greater benefits

• Increased productivity

Norstar and BCM features like caller ID, voicemail, conferencing,

directory integration and contact center extend away from the

desktop.

• Improved customer service

Be instantly available to customers, and virtually eliminate the

need to ever put a customer on hold because you need to change

your own location.

• Cost savings

Competitive price point; reduces or eliminates unnecessary

long distance, cellular and pager charges.

• Improved employee satisfaction

Remove the nuisance and disruption of overhead paging and the

hassle of searching for a telephone to return calls.

• Increased collaboration

Greater mobility facilitates tighter and more efficient real-time

communications, immediate access to information.

Enhanced audio quality

The audio quality is exceptional. Nortel

has designed in complementary radio

technologies, such as G729 compres-

sion, to deliver clearer signals and mini-

mize noise or interference. The T7406E

is “Wi-Fi friendly”, making it a great

fit for the many businesses that have

equipped their offices with a wireless

LAN (based on IEEE 802.11b). The

Nortel handset automatically adjusts for

the presence of wireless data networks

when they are detected, and the associ-

ated channel frequencies are avoided.

Keeps private communi-

cations private

For security, the T7406E uses a new

64-bit encryption as defined for

DECT (Digital Enhanced Cordless

Telecommunications). The encryption

key is generated every time the handset

goes from an off-hook state to an

on-hook state.

An upgrade path

anyone can follow

If you’ve been considering a Nortel

voice solution, the unprecedented

price/performance of the T7406E is

an excellent reason to look more closely

at our Norstar Integrated Communica-

tion Systems and our BCM 50/200/

400 solutions. If you’re already a Nortel

customer, the T7406E is completely

backward- and forward-compatible,

so you can purchase it today with

confidence you’ll still reap the benefits

even as you add to your existing

voice infrastructure, or migrate

from Norstar to BCM.

T7406E complements

other Nortel SMB mobility

offerings

Digital Mobility and Wireless LAN

are two other Nortel SMB portfolio

offerings that are very attractive for

campuses and/or rugged environments.

Nortel’s WLAN solutions also enable

voice and data convergence. By com-

parison, the T7406E is a lower cost,

simpler, voice-only solution that is

particularly well-suited to the needs

of small-site SMBs.

Rest easy with Nortel
